Ok ok ok i will take off my clown mask and stop talking in a funny voice......yes im a joker but im gonna be serious for once...

Well....um....I [b]want[/b] to go to the retreat and it might help me to discern properly for whatever God wants me to be. Also yes I am afraid that I might like it. I "act" like I am not interested in it but really deep down inside I feel a tug and thats why I am going.

honest answers are always good answers. Taking the time for a discernment retreat will certainly help you.

This is why I could never be a Dominican, the white habit. Me and white, bad, bad combination. I'd spent most of my day washing the stains out. At least a brown habit hides some of the stains

I had the grimiest Dominican habit next to Sr. Mary Grace in my community. Between the two of us, we collected most of the dirt. :hehe2:

Well, that's a very honest answer Mon, and I thank you for it. Yes, it is scary, but you are being so brave in taking a step closer to God, so no matter what happens, your soul will benefit from this experience. My prayers go with you in your discernment and I am sure you will not only have a great time, but you will give joy to the sisters with [b]your bright personality[/b]!

Or the RSMs! They have at least one dog in every convent at the Motherhouse and and some dogs at the mission convents. ;)

i don't get involved in other people's discernments. I've known things about certain women who have looked into my community in the past and I never told them, "Well, that will keep you out." OR, "My Sisters won't want you there." BECAUSE, basically NO ONE KNOWS THE MIND OF GOD. IF a person who I deemed "not worthy" of my Doms was trying to contact them or go on a retreat, who am I or who is anyone for that matter, to "warn" the Sisters??? Ridiculousnessnessness...

[/quote]

I certainly hope my little comment about who was going to warn the nuns was not taken seriously. I am pretty sure that Lil Mon knows when I am teasing her, in an affectionate way. She has a great sense of humour too - takes life very lightly and makes us all feel good, like a younger sister (at least younger for me!). That's why I wanted to get her serious answer to my question - because I do care about her and hope for her best.

I would never contact someone's potential convent (I don't even know the community she is going to visit) because I have ahd it done to me and felt very violated by the person who did it.

Mon, you have great courage and I admire you.

Anthony of Padua preached to the fish.

Hmmmm....

if Lil Monster DOES discern a Dominican vocation she can [i][b]preach[/b][/i] to the whole flock!

You just go have a good retreat, and we'll support WHATEVER God has for you to do - you'll be great at it!
